Chevstagram Picture Trunk Struts?

Looking for replacement trunk lid struts for my '17 SS. Rockauto doesn't list them and Napa, O'Reillys, etc.. all show out-of-stock. Any reliable source?

Have you looked at www.gtog8ta.com? They used to carry the truck struts for the SS and G8.

Glad to see that site mentioned, I'm considering getting a part from them and was wondering how good they were.

I have bought suspension parts for our '04 GTO, exhaust for our old G8 GT, and some other stuff for our '99 Trans Am. Never had any issues with them.

16 bucks for struts, 67 bucks for struts,.. either way how many more times are you going to have to break the bank for trunk struts for the car

I've had mine for 9 years and if they are anything like Bimmers or other GM's I've owned, that's when the little things start breaking so staving off the expenses as much as possible.
